A CREATIVE SPURT

I was meant to do my Christmas window today for my shop Omnia but stock came in so there were boxes to unpack, had to find places for stock BUT just was not in the mood. So instead I made this light cover for our standard lamp as people keep buying the lamp shades off it. This one  is made from bits of the white paper some handmade Christmas decorations came packed in so not something I can sell but I kinda like it!!!!

Keeping up to date on social media

Well it is a long time in between blog posts and so much has been happening but my aim now is to try and spread my news I regularly post on FB.  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Omnia-a-little-bit-of-everywhere
 I will be including my overseas adventures,  and my random creative spurts in my studio for my shop Omnia. www.omniagiftboxes.com.au

So this week I managed to make up all the little retro sunsuits I cut out the week before. Generally my policy is to only use fabrics & notions available in my work shop. I have collected fabrics and buttons and lace from all my travels so I have plenty to choose from. I am a fabric addict. Whenever i find a pattern or colour i like I just have to have it. Like this retro 50's print cotton.


These little sunsuits are for 6-9mths old kiddies, some have frilly bottoms and others don't.  I especially like the Dr Seuss one featured in our shop window this week along with a little crocheted sun hat and Dr Seuss singlet.

Here are some of the others I made.



Now I have to clean up my studio before I start the next project.
